[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 860736, member: 12607"] I'm just not that impatient to know if the cow's bred or not. And...just because she's pregnant at 28 days doesn't mean she'll still be pregnant at 60 days. Have seen way too many that didn't return to heat at 18-21 days post breeding(AI or bull), but show up in heat later on - especially when breeding in HOT weather. I'd be afraid that if I put all my eggs in that basket, and got the news that the ol' gal was bred, I might drop my guard and not be watching close enough to catch her if she aborted and cycled back in. I'm not all AI; most of my adult cows get one AI service and then out to the bull. So...if they don't stick to the AI service, the bull should take care of it from that point forward. If I palpate, and they're 60+ days along, I feel pretty confident that, barring a disaster, that they'll carry to term. [/QUOTE]
